RIP Mr Baker, thank you for the great music! May you have many pleasant disagreements with Jack.

Hey, redhead, with you it's not quite clear WHERE you will be going, but whether your new company will be feathered or horned, do teach them your uncanny paradiddles!
Thanks for making drums talk.

For all his crankiness, Ginger did have a sense of humor. In the mid 80s he had bought an olive farm in Italy. I saw him on Letterman's NBC show back then and Dave asked him if olive farming was difficult. Ginger said that the hardest part was getting the olives to grow around the pimientos.

In eternal commemoration, I want to start an online petition
requiring
Eric Clapton to play Sunshine Of Your Love
PROPERLY
from now on, i.e. with the emphasis on 1 and 3 - rather than 2 and 4. Someone has to tell him that he is playing it like ...
... yes, quite, ex-BCR Ian Mitchell (here with his Rosetta Stone outfit playing rhythm - as he did with BCR - on the Firebird).

That was a good concert - before an auditorium filled with rock star royalty!
